GIVE ME A COMPLIMENT.
I've been wrestling with the insurance company today. The airbag light turned on after they completed the repairs. According to Progressive, this "open circuit spiral cable," or whatever it was, only occurs when the airbag has been deployed. Which is pretty fascinating, considering that my airbag has never been deployed, isn't currently deployed, and is still showing the bloody code. Really, Progressive? Is it so hard to believe someone futzed with the steering column and gibbed up the clock spring?
Oh yeah, did I forget to tell you? I still don't have my car back. My car that was recovered on July 3rd.![blackeyed](https://dz3ixmv6nok8z.cloudfront.net/static/img/emoticons/punch.6a3d8a00b8f8.gif)
Honestly, it could be worse. My adjustor has been really receptive to my concerns, and until this airbag SNAFU, things have been going along slowly, but smoothly. My requests for an alignment and a rental car were met without any evasiveness or finagling. Everyone has been great about returning calls and answering questions. Hopefully this is all just a misunderstanding.
I've been doing some freelance-y esque work that has helped with the deluge of expenses and is also exceedingly convenient. My friends are all coming back into town this weekend, as are the new graduate kids on the block. It's hot, and it couldn't get much hotter, but I'm managing fine.
This life I've got, it's not so bad.

That is amazing and I am jealous that I didn't think of that first, and will probably just end up copying you sometime in the distant future, after you have forgotten that I told you that I planned on copying you.
I hope everything works out with your car.
This crazy bird loves you.
